John,

I know you probably don’t want to see another political email asking for money, but…

What if I told you a Republican opponent has officially filed to run against me in this district?

What if I told you Republicans just launched another ad campaign attacking me because they are desperate to flip this seat?

What if I told you Trump is amassing an unprecedented war chest to keep Republicans in control of Congress?

What if I told you our FEC fundraising deadline is just three days away and we’re falling dramatically short of our grassroots goal?

This is the only toss-up seat in New York and one of the most competitive in the country. If we lose it, we are all but guaranteed to lose our shot at taking back the House.

Every day we see the chaos Republicans are unleashing. Winning the House won’t fix everything. However, it will give us the power to block the next wave of cruelty, hold hearings, shine a light on corruption and finally go on the offensive again.

That’s why I’m asking for your support. We need to hit our FEC goal before the deadline to show everyone that we can stand toe to toe against the record-breaking Republican fundraising numbers. If you have the capacity to contribute today, it would make a difference.

Gratefully,

—Laura
